The hope that I was promised in 2008 is finally coming to fruition, not because of our President, but because of the uprise of people who said they have enough. The boiling point is about to occur and collectively we will be taking back this nation and redefining the American dream that applies to 100% of American's, not the top 1%.Reidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01207691299478909810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481083477379506990.post-58516299753803600242011-10-01T11:38:43.870-04:002011-10-01T11:38:43.870-04:00I want to comment on your Occupy Wall Street artic...I want to comment on your Occupy Wall Street article. Excellent and informative! <br /><br />Finally some good coverage in Opinionator NYT and the comments following are a good read. Of course this movement doesn't have a Koch and company funded news outlet (like Fox) to provide the round-the-clock coverage readily available to the Tea Party. For those who are not NYT readers, I'm posting this link. -- Kim http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/09/30/can-you-hear-them-now-3/?hpAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481083477379506990.post-37868139862436394462011-09-30T21:03:36.209-04:002011-09-30T21:03:36.209-04:00Hi Cryn and All,

The sad fact is that most of the media and society generally will take a movement seriously when some established organization is leading or fueling it. So not just any union will do: We need the UAW, Teamsters or other unions of similar size and impact.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481083477379506990.post-40521186485773716092011-09-30T09:50:17.072-04:002011-09-30T09:50:17.072-04:00We need the unions to takethe lead.
